Vascular biomechanics – Computer simulations of clinical problems<br />
Interdisciplinary research in the field of biomechanics, with particular emphasize on simulation<br />
techniques to solve clinically relevant problems. Previous and current work includes:<br />
o In-vitro experimental investigation of soft biological tissues.<br />
o Reconstruction of vascular bodies from Computer Tomography Angiography (CT-A) images<br />
for Finite Element (FE) analysis.<br />
o Continuum mechanical modeling of the non-linear elastic, the visco-elastic and the elastoplastic<br />
properties of vascular tissue.<br />
o Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) of blood flow through normal and diseased arteries.<br />
o Numerical description of non-linear failure mechanics by means of the discontinuous FE<br />
method and cohesive zone models.<br />
o Modeling growth of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms<br />
Requested additional know-how<br />
Imaging with emphasize on functional imaging of vascular tissues.<br />
Research project in the field of biomedical engineering<br />
